The NES homebrew development scene continues to thrive, showcasing the dedication and creativity of retro gaming fans. A standout project in this vibrant community is Famidash, a fan-made demake of the popular rhythm-action platformer Geometry Dash, now available for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Developed by a team initially led by Zephyrside and later maintained by kandowontu, Famidash was released on October 10, 2024, and brings the fast-paced challenge of its modern inspiration to the 8-bit console. With 12 levels recreated from the original game plus three community-designed additions, players navigate rhythm-based obstacles—switching between a jumping cube, flying ship, or rolling ball—within the NES’s tight technical limits. The latest update for the game brings the number of levels up to 63 and the game can be played in its entirety without a gamepad, utilising the SNES Mouse.

The NES, first launched in 1985, has long been a favourite among homebrew developers due to its straightforward design and well-understood hardware. Nearly 40 years on, the scene remains active, supported by forums like NESdev, where coders exchange ideas and tackle the challenges of 6502 assembly programming. Famidash itself is built using a mix of C language and assembly, a feat that highlights the skill required to adapt a modern game to such vintage technology. The community has also seen growth thanks to tools like NESFab, which simplify development, leading to a steady stream of new titles like CelesteNES and Mosh-Lift.

Activity in the NES homebrew world is robust, with developers regularly releasing games and sharing progress online. Platforms like Reddit and GBAtemp buzz with discussions about projects, while X posts reveal upcoming works like R-G-Bleeki. Famidash has been warmly received, praised for its faithful mechanics and nostalgic appeal, further fuelling interest in creating for the NES. This ongoing wave of innovation ensures the console’s legacy endures, blending classic gaming with fresh ideas.

The Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller steps into this nostalgic space with finesse.

39 years ago on 21 February 1986, Nintendo’s innovative Disk System was released for the Family Computer (NES), promising a revolution in home gaming. Boasting a 1M capacity—far exceeding that of traditional game cassettes—the system enabled players to save progress and even rewrite games for a modest fee. However, as much as it broke new ground, it also left enthusiasts with a few enduring curiosities.
Among these is the so-called “mysterious terminal” concealed behind the RAM adapter. Originally designed to support additional peripherals, this terminal was covered by a sliding shutter and intended for a communication adapter that would have enabled downloads, animated messaging, and even early forms of online services. Unfortunately, the planned accessory was never released, leaving behind an enigmatic relic of what might have been a pioneering network feature.
For many children of that era, the Disk System was both a marvel and a mild frustration. The novelty of saving game progress was often overshadowed by lengthy loading times—displaying nothing more than a stark “ADING” on a black screen—contrasting sharply with the near-instantaneous transitions seen in earlier cassette-based games. Despite this, the system gave birth to timeless classics such as The Legend of Zelda, Dracula, and Metroid, each contributing to the rich tapestry of gaming history.
While large-capacity cassettes soon eclipsed the Disk System’s advantages, its legacy endures among retro gaming aficionados. It remains a poignant reminder of an era when technical limitations and bold innovation walked hand in hand, leaving a legacy that continues to influence modern game design.

Respawned Records, in partnership with Retro‐Bit, has unveiled a limited edition release that promises to excite both collectors and retro gaming enthusiasts. The new offering – the “Totally Rad Official Vinyl Soundtrack” – revisits the distinctive 8‐bit soundscape of the classic 1991 NES game, Totally Rad, celebrated for its dynamic chiptune compositions and high-energy melodies.
Credit: Respawned Records
The record is pressed on neon‐yellow vinyl adorned with magenta, orange and green splatters, a design choice that mirrors the game’s vibrant, California‐cool aesthetic. Encased in a high-gloss jacket featuring artwork inspired by the surreal visual style of the game, the release is as much a visual statement as it is an auditory one. Each copy is individually numbered, underlining its status as a collector’s item and ensuring that no two records are identical.
Pre-orders for the soundtrack are now open, with the preorder window set to close on 22 March. Following this period, full production will commence, with shipping expected to begin in June 2025. At a price of $29.99, the record is positioned as an accessible yet exclusive addition for fans of both vinyl and the retro gaming era.
This release is being hailed as a significant nod to the preservation of video game history, capturing the unique spirit of early NES titles through modern production techniques. Music aficionados and collectors alike are invited to secure their piece of nostalgia before the limited run sells out, ensuring that the legacy of Totally Rad is enshrined in both sound and style.

Limited Run Games, a company known for publishing physical editions of modern and retro-inspired titles, is under fire for allegedly producing NES cartridges that could potentially harm consoles. Reports from collectors and retro gaming enthusiasts suggest that these new cartridges may cause damage to the internal components of original NES hardware, sparking concerns across the community.
Rugrats may harm your console, picture credit Limited Run Games
The issue first came to light when multiple users reported their NES systems malfunctioning after using Limited Run’s cartridges. Some claim that improper voltage regulation or poor manufacturing could be to blame, with affected consoles showing symptoms ranging from graphical glitches to complete hardware failure. Given that many retro gamers rely on original hardware for an authentic experience, this controversy has raised serious alarm.
Limited Run Games contacted John Riggs who shared the content of the email (below) where they confirmed that “due to an issue with the voltage regulation, there is a small chance that prolonged use of these titles could result in damage to either the cartridge or the console hardware” 😳. The blame has been put on a supplier that is not their regular partner. The games in question are RugRats and PiioPow, both of which have sold out and are no longer available.
My email from Limited Run. Looks like my copy of Rugrats will just stay in the box.
This incident underscores the risks associated with modern reproductions of retro hardware. While many companies have successfully released high-quality cartridges in recent years, quality control issues can still arise, and collectors are now questioning whether enough testing was conducted before these products hit the market.
For now, affected users are advising others to avoid inserting these cartridges into their NES systems until further investigation clarifies the risks. The retro gaming community will be closely monitoring the situation, waiting to see if Limited Run responds with a solution or refund policy.

‘Ravi and Navi’ has been unveiled as the first new title for the Famicom Disk System (FDS) since 1992. This release breathes new life into Nintendo’s classic console peripheral, which was originally launched in 1986.
The FDS, an attachment for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), utilised proprietary floppy disks for game storage, offering expanded memory and the ability to save game progress—features that were groundbreaking at the time. However, with the advent of more advanced gaming technologies, production of FDS games ceased in the early ’90s.
‘Ravi and Navi’ is set to be released on vibrant orange 3D-printed disks, a modern twist that pays homage to the original FDS media. This innovative approach not only captures the nostalgia of the era but also showcases the dedication of the retro gaming community to preserving and revitalising classic gaming experiences.
The game’s development and impending release highlight a growing trend among enthusiasts to create new content for vintage gaming systems. This movement not only honours the legacy of classic consoles but also introduces these timeless experiences to new generations of gamers.
As ‘Ravi and Navi’ prepares to make its debut, it stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of retro gaming and the passion of its community. This release is poised to inspire further interest and development in classic gaming platforms, ensuring that the legacy of consoles like the Famicom Disk System continues to thrive.

Indie developer Lowtek Games is back with Flea 2, a sequel to their 2020 retro platformer, bringing even more flea-jumping action to the Dreamcast and NES. Continuing the adventures of Henry the flea, this installment introduces new mechanics, levels, and characters while keeping the challenging, fast-paced gameplay intact.
Following in the footsteps of its predecessor, Flea 2 offers tight, responsive controls and a unique jumping mechanic where Henry bounces uncontrollably, requiring precise timing to navigate obstacles and enemies. This time around, the game features a branching level system, allowing players to explore different paths as they collect blood packs and avoid deadly hazards.

The game is being developed for both the NES and Dreamcast, with physical copies available for collectors. NES cartridges are being made in limited batches, while Dreamcast editions come with a full-colour manual and case, embracing the spirit of classic releases.
Reviews from early players highlight Flea 2’s quirky pixel-art style, catchy chiptune soundtrack, and satisfying difficulty curve. The game maintains the retro aesthetic while introducing quality-of-life improvements, including optional paths for less experienced players.

Flea 2 is currently available on Steam as well, making it accessible to a wider audience beyond the original hardware. For fans of NES-style platformers and those who appreciate the thriving homebrew scene, this is one to watch.

Like their past efforts, Data Man will ship in a full physical edition, complete with a cartridge, box, and manual.
The game is currently available to order on Broke Studio’s website.
